Amanda Davis, an icon in Atlanta broadcast news, died Tuesday while en route to her stepfather's funeral. She was 62.

Davis had been a television staple in the city for more than 30 years, serving as a morning anchor at CBS46 News after spending 26 years at WAGA.

She was reportedly at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport when she suffered a massive spontaneous stroke.

She was rushed to a hospital and treated, but it proved to be too late.

“It’s not easy to pass this along but we do have to pass along some sad news about our friend and our colleague Amanda Davis,” anchor Sharon Reed shared in an emotional CBS 46 broadcast on Wednesday. “Amanda suffered a massive, spontaneous stroke. “He family, as you might imagine, is going through a lot right now.”
